First Spring Training session a big success!

Our first Spring Training Session this Saturday was a ringing success. Over half of our registered players showed up and they quickly shook off the winter cob-webs. The enthusiasm of our players was inspirational as they braved the "spring conditions" of the scrubs with smiles. A special thanks to all of the parent volunteers who helped with coaching.

To give your children and our coaches the best training possible we are offering Extended Spring Training on March 12th from Chicago's famous Elite Baseball Academy. The additional training will be a great way to get our players ready for opening day on April 9th. Most sessions are optional, but we highly encourage all Competitive League players to attend at least one Extended Training Session and one Regular Training Session.

Elite Sessions Vs. Standard Sessions - The US coaches will only be available for the Extended Training Sessions. - Fee for LondonSports registered players is £25 or £35 for players from other leagues (Mets & LYBL) - The fee is heavily underwritten by the league to encourage player and coach development.
- We urge all Competitive League players to do at least one Extended Training Session.

Standard Spring Training Format - The sessions will include skills clinics by coaches, pick-up games and casual player evaluation by all coaches to assist in the team-setting, so please join us for as many sessions as you can, but at a minimum please attend March, 19th.

We use Spring Training to evaluate all of our young athletes in the basic skills like pitching, batting, throwing and catching. Our league's commissioners then use this information to help in selecting balanced teams. Our focus is on the kids having fun and one of the best ways to do that is to try to give each team an equal chance of winning. Spring Training will go a long way in helping us to do that.
